Re: inguinal hernia

ok the left side was a sports hernia (Gilmore's Groin) and the right
just a hernia (not sure whether it was direct or indirect) but the left
is virtually pain free now. The right is what is causing the majority
of the pain.

the doctors at the time did not know that I had a hernia. I went to a
hospital in Australia. They gave me a CT and Ultrasound scan to check
that it wasn't anything more serious. In this country I had a scan that
involved them injecting die into my groin and then bearing down to show
if a hernia 'lump' showed. I think its called a Herniagram Scan, but
not sure.
